To use this tote, simply put your things inside and carry it by the handles. It's great for everyday items like your wallet, phone, keys, and shopping items. When it comes to special occasions, fill it with gifts and present it to someone. Remember, since it's made to order, it takes 7 - 10 business days to be ready. To keep it in good shape, spot - clean it with a mild detergent and let it air - dry. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine - washing it as it might damage the fabric and the design. Also, don't over - stuff it to prevent stretching the handles or the bag itself.
